Apocalyptic headlines and shaky data make the Met Office's 2024 climate report read more like a scare story than a work of science, says Paul Homewood.
"It will be remembered as the greatest mass delusion in the history of the world – that CO2, the life of plants, was deemed for a time to be a deadly poison." So said Prof Richard Lindzen. He's right, says Chris Morrison.
Stand aside Justin Rowlatt. The BBC has a new climate doom-monger in chief. With his tall tales of sea levels rising "several metres or more", Mark Poynting means to keep the population fully alarmed, says Chris Morrison.
Sea levels could rise over six feet by 2100, the Daily Mail declared in a headline this week. It's the latest pseudoscientific fearmongering being fed to journalists by activist academics, says Chris Morrison.
Scare stories of rising seas swallowing cities whole are a staple of the alarmist narrative. As usual, the facts get in the way, says Chris Morrison, as scientists find global land area is significantly increasing.
The "surging seas are coming for us all", UN chief Antonio Guterres warned last week. The only solution is to send him lots of money. Give me a break, says Chris Morrison: there's no evidence sea levels are rising fast.
In a fresh blow to climate alarmism, islands like Tuvalu and the Maldives that were predicted soon to "disappear" beneath rising seas have been found to have actually grown in size.
The journalist Ross Gelbspan, who led the fight against what he called "climate denialism", has passed away. Richard Burcik looks back at his claims and finds he was wrong about everything.
An increase in the pace at which sea levels are rising threatens “a mass exodus of entire populations on a biblical scale” and whole nations could be drowned under the waves, the UN Secretary General has warned.
Scientists are scrambling to explain why the continent of Antarctica has shown Net Zero warming for at least the last seven decades, writes Daily Sceptic Environment Editor, Chris Morrison.
